791130 2009-07-13 13:12:00 I had a cheap (Eagle) Ti4200 once that would whistle sometimes. Usually only in 3D screensavers for some reason

Interestingly though MSI says the sound was actually coming from the PSU not the video card...

Wonder if the same thing was happening to the Hyena I had at the time

This was before I found out how bad Hyena was, and why you don't just go around buying any old video card brand because it's cheap and the board looks cool because it's black....

Only 96GT that can run 800 core that I know of!

I got it because it seemed like good value for money, although I now realise I probably would have been better off with a 4850. Then I could have an AMD Fusion system.

Excellent value for money
